Takasu Snow Park is a ski area in Gifu, Japan, on slopes between roughly 976 and 1,440 m. Its mapped area is about 3.5 km across, with 40 marked runs and 9 lifts (about 30 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 322 cm of snowfall a season, 134th of the 397 ski areas we measure in Japan. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2024/25 (492 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2015/16 (171 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 110 cm. Snowfall days average −4.0 °C at mid-mountain, and its snow-quality score ranks 109th of 397 in Japan.
The nearest city of any size is Fukui, about 59 km away. Below are links to 2 official live cameras.
Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

The tick marks the median across every Japanese ski area we measure. All four bars run the same way — longer is better.
The quality score deliberately excludes how much snow falls — it uses temperature, frequency, rain and wind. Snowing a lot and snowing well are different things.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km straight line. Measured the same way, so the ranks compare directly. Ski areas a few kilometres apart share a weather grid cell and can return the same figure.

When it falls, and how winters differ

Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 322 cm, and 6 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2015/16 with 171 cm; the biggest was 2024/25 with 492 cm (2.9 times as much). For 63% of the 397 ski areas in Japan, the leanest winter was the same 2015/16: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.

Guides covering Gifu
- When Is There Snow at Japan's Hot Spring Towns? If you want to sit in an outdoor bath with snow on the ground, the question is when, not just where. We measured the snow depth at 14 Japanese hot spring towns across three winters — arrival, departure, and how many days it is actually deep.
- Ski and Soak in Japan: Which Ski Areas Have a Hot Spring Source Next Door, and How Hot the Water Is We matched 7,203 analysed hot spring sources to Japan's ski areas. 255 of 397 have one within 5 km, 145 of them at 42 °C or hotter, and 54 have one within 1 km. These are the ski areas that pair top snow with hot water close by, and the ones where the water is strongly acidic.
- Shirakawa-go's Snow Falls at Around 0°C. That Is Why the Roofs Are 60 Degrees. Japan has thatched villages all over the country, and only one of them built roofs like praying hands. We measured the snow at four of them: Shirakawa-go gets twelve times Miyama's depth, and it arrives at the heaviest temperature snow can fall.
